Nene and her family began a parade from the fountain circle gate, driving around for about an hour before returning to Siam Paragon. They then proceeded to the fifth-floor Paragon Hall for the ‘Welcome NENE ROYAL: Win The World for Thailand’ showcase, which was open to the public free of charge and drew many registered fans. Before entering the hall, Nene spoke with the press, saying she was delighted by the turnout, excited to greet everyone, and thrilled whenever fans called her name. She revealed that a special fan meeting would take place later as a surprise. Reflecting on her AGT victory, Nene said she was completely shocked, had not expected to hear her name announced as champion, and fainted on stage; she had only aimed to perform her best, not to win. She shared her dream of performing her own songs on concert stages, said she is currently working on new music, and hopes to tour in the future while balancing her studies and training. Nene added that she is still getting used to the title “National Daughter,” but feels proud and grateful for the support, urging aspiring dreamers to practice hard and stay determined. Her father, Narong, described the moment as emotional, saying the family collapsed together when she won, and noted that details of her AGT contract are still pending, with any future work—whether abroad or in Thailand—requiring consultation with AGT, though domestic opportunities pose no problem.
